Calculation example:
In case of the following conditions:
|
Initial deposit amount |
1,000,000 AMD |
|
Date of making the deposit |
1/12/2023 |
|
Deposit term |
12 months (until 1/12/2024) |
|
Annual interest rate |
9․5% |
|
Interest payment |
At expiry |
|
Income tax |
10% on interest income |
The deposit interest amount is calculated in the following way:
Daily interest income
1,000,000.00 (deposited sum) x 9.5/100 (annual interest rate) / 365 (number of days in a year) = 260.27
Daily interest income during a leap year
1,000,000.00 (deposited sum) x 9.5/100 (annual interest rate) / 366 (number of days in a year) = 259.56
Total interest income for 12 months
260.27 x 31 days + 259.56 x 335 days = 95,022.05
Net interest income for 12 months
95,022.05 - 9,502.20 (10% from total interest income is subject to income tax) = 85,519.84 (interest to be paid to the depositor upon maturity of the deposit)
Total deposit amount (initial deposit + after-tax interests) = AMD 1,085,519.84
Calculated amounts are rounded up to one hundredth.
On below terms:
|
Initial deposit |
AMD 1,000,000 |
|

|
Annual interest rate |

10% from interest income |
The deposit interest amount is calculated in the following way:
Daily interest income
1,000,000.00 (deposited sum) x 9.5/100 (annual interest rate) / 365 (number of days in a year) = 260.27
Daily interest income during a leap year
1,000,000.00 (deposited sum) x 9.5/100 (annual interest rate) / 366 (number of days in a year) = 259.56
Total interest income for 12 months
260.27 x 31 days + 259.56 x 335 days = 95,022.05
Net interest income for 12 months
95,022.05 - 9,502.20 (10% from total interest income is subject to income tax) = 85,519.84 (interest to be paid to the depositor upon maturity of the deposit)
Total deposit amount (initial deposit + after-tax interests) = AMD 1,085,519.84
Calculated amounts are rounded up to one hundredth.
Annual percentage yield
The interest on the funds in your account is calculated on the basis of simple interest rate, and the annual interest yield shows the income you would receive as a result of making mandatory payments related to deposit and receiving interest earned on a regular basis.
The calculation of the annual percentage yield on the deposit is made on the basis of the following formula set under the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia Regulation 8/02 "Calculation of the annual percentage yield of bank deposits":
where:
- A - initial deposit amount
- n - the number of cash flows for the deposit
- N - the last number of cash flow for the deposit (including the cash flow at the time of making the deposit), after which the term of the deposit agreement is considered expired.
- Kn - cash flows on deposit made upon making the deposit and/or during the deposit term and/or capitalized interest, and mandatory payments, if any.
- Dn - the number that indicates the quantity of days elapsed since the day of making the deposit up to the next - n-th cash flow for the deposit, inclusively (at the time of making the deposit: D1 = 0)
General terms of accepting deposit
- The deposit is validated on the basis of an agreement.
- According to the agreement, more than one person can be a depositor, in which case the agreement is signed by all parties and the deposit is managed and used with the right of joint ownership.
- If more than one person is a depositor, the amount of the deposit or a part of it as well as the interest accrued on it can be paid either on the condition of mandatory presence of all parties; or it can be paid to only one of the persons involved, on the basis of a notarized power of attorney signed by the other parties.
- Replenishment of the deposit amount during the deposit term is not allowed.
- The depositor has the right to make the deposit to the Bank in the name of a third party in accordance with the RA legislation and in accordance with the procedure established by the Bank's internal legal acts.
- The deposit can also be made online (without the possibility of making a deposit in favor of a third party) with the help of the Online Banking system https://conversebank.am/en/internet-banking/ .
Calculation and Payment of Interests
- The interests are calculated against the actual balance of the deposit from the day of opening of the deposit until the day preceding the day of its return to the depositor or withdrawal from the depositor’s account on other grounds.
- The Bank calculates the interests at a simple interest rate, taking 365 days in a year or 366 days in a leap year as a divisor.
- The interest amount is calculated on a daily basis against the account balance.
- Where the time deposit is opened with a foreign currency, the interests are paid to the depositor with AMD at the respective buy rate set by the Bank at the date of payment for the respective currency or, at the depositor’s discretion, with the currency of the deposit.
- The interests calculated against the deposit, unless the depositor has received in the period set in the deposit agreement, are paid by the Bank to the depositor on the latter’s demand.
- Unless the depositor demand the redemption of the deposit and the payment of the calculated interest after expiry, the agreement is deemed renewed on the terms and conditions of time deposits applied by the Bank at that point, unless otherwise required in the customer’s deposit agreement or based on the customer’s written instruction.
Additional information:
- Time deposit accounts are opened and serviced free of charge.
- The deposit account is closed once the deposit agreement expires.
- No current banking transactions can be executed on the deposit account other than opening and redemption of the deposit.
- The deposit is opened at branches from the savings account with the currency of the deposit; in the absence thereof, the deposit is opened free of opening and service charge.
- The interests accrued on the deposit and the funds credited to the deposit account are paid to the depositor free of any commission.
- The information about the deposit opened with the Bank is deemed bank secrecy and the Bank guarantees its confidentiality.
Early Termination of Deposit Agreement
- If the time deposit is returned on the depositor’s demand before expiry, based on the depositor’s application, the interests are recalculated and the recalculation is made at the demand deposit rate applied by the Bank (currently 0.1%).
- When the depositor dissolves the FX time deposit agreement on the condition of directly concluding a time deposit agreement with AMD on similar terms, the interests are not recalculated.
